Abstract In this paper, a triple-band bandpass filter using a multi-mode half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) cavity is presented. In this design, back-to-back connected half-mode defected ground structure (DGS) is loaded into the HMSIW cavity, which generates the first passband. The first four modes of HMSIW cavity are TM110, TM120, TM310, and TM320. They have been used to generate second and third passbands. The slot line perturbation is used to shift the modes close to each other. Here, TM110 and TM120 constitute second passband, and TM310 and TM320 give third passband. Moreover, the notch band is designed using embedded open-circuited stub to improve the attenuation between the second and third passbands. The proposed filter is designed and fabricated on RT/Duroid 5880 substrate with a thickness of 0.508 mm. The measured results are in line with simulated ones for each of the passbands, and the center frequencies are 6.28, 13, and 19.12 GHz.

This paper proposes the design of a single radiator monopulse antenna with a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) multi-mode feeding system to reduce the aperture size and simplify the feeding structure. The proposed antenna can effectively reduce the overall system size by using a single patch radiator, compared to conventional systems that require multiple radiators. In addition, to simplify the structure of the pattern comparator we use a SIW multi-mode feeding system with TE10 and TE20 modes. To verify the feasibility, the patch antenna with the SIW multi-mode feed is fabricated, and its antenna characteristics of reflection coefficients, mutual coupling, and radiation patterns are measured in a full anechoic chamber. The accuracy of the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation is further improved by applying the derived calibration factor to the resulting sum and difference ratio. The results demonstrate that the proposed antenna is suitable for compact and lightweight monopulse systems with the single radiator and the simple multi-mode feeding network.

We have developed a multi-mode digital imaging system which acquires images with a cooled CCD camera (Figure 1). A multiple band pass dichromatic mirror and robotically controlled filter wheels provide wavelength selection for epi-fluorescence. Shutters select illumination either by epi-fluorescence or by transmitted light for phase contrast or DIC. Many of our experiments involve investigations of spindle assembly dynamics and chromosome movements in live cells or unfixed reconstituted preparations in vitro in which photodamage and phototoxicity are major concerns. As a consequence, a major factor in the design was optical efficiency: achieving the highest image quality with the least number of illumination photons. This principle applies to both epi-fluorescence and transmitted light imaging modes. In living cells and extracts, microtubules are visualized using X-rhodamine labeled tubulin. Photoactivation of C2CF-fluorescein labeled tubulin is used to locally mark microtubules in studies of microtubule dynamics and translocation. Chromosomes are labeled with DAPI or Hoechst DNA intercalating dyes.
